Which breast pump do you recommend? Some of my friends tried a couple and hated theirs. Before I go and buy one, I would like to get some ideas from you ladies. Thanks!
It depends on how you will be using it. I have the medela swing and like it but only pump once a day. If you will be going back to work and are planning on pumping, you may need a 'fancier' one

I have the Lansinoh double electric pump. I pump about 5 times a day, and so far I've been happy with the pump. It's getting the milk out just fine & I don't find it to be uncomfortable.

I pump during the day and a few times at night (I FF at night) and I'm in LOVE with my Medela PIS Advance. I even have it hooked on a nursing bra so it can be handsfree if I need it to be. It comes with bottles (love them) and a battery pack so I can pump anywhere I need to. Love, Love, Love, it!
I have the Lansinoh double electric and it works great for me. I want to get the Medela frees style to be more hands free and able to do chores while pumping ( I exclusively pump).

I second this! I burnt the motor out on the swing bc I was using it 4+times a day. I now have a Medela Pump in Style Advance that I love, and it gets way more milk out of me too. Plus it is a double pump....a necessity to save time if you will be pumping at work like me! Good luck!
I have the Medela Freestyle and I love it. It's small, it's battery-operated (so I can get up and move around if I need to while I'm pumping), and it works fast.
Whichever pump you get, if you're planning on pumping a lot or when you go back to work, I recommend the Easy Expressions pumping bra. I haven't even tried the Freestyle attachments b/c I already had the bra and it's so easy.

My pump is sitting right at my feet at work...look's just like a black purse, you can't even tell it's a breast pump. It works great.

I bought mine from www.bestbuybaby.com for $265, which included shipping.
